Answer:
The fraction of cup filled with water is 3/4.
Step-by-step explanation:
Antonia has a mug with a capacity of 2/3L of water. What fraction of that mug will she fill with 1/2L of water?
Capacity = 2/3 L
Amount of water = 1/2 L
Fraction of amount of water to the capacity of mug is
P = L + L + w + w
72 = 2(L) + 2(L-4)
Distribute
72 = 2(L) + 2(L) - 8
Add like terms
72 = 4(L) - 8
Subtract 8 from both sides
64 = 4(L)
Divide both sides by 4
16 = L
The length is 16. Now substitute that in the equation for finding w.
w = L - 4
w =
Answer:
(1/3 - 5/6) / 5/6
You want to make 1/3 and 5/6 have the same denominator so you multiply both the numerator and denominator of 1/3 by 2 to get 2/6. You plug that back into your equation to get: (2/6 - 5/6) / 5/6. 2/6 - 5/6 is -3/6. -3/6 divided by 5/6 is -3/6 multiplied by 6/5 which is -3/5.
Answer:
2/13 or 15.38%
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of Aces in a deck = 4
Number of 7s in a deck = 4
Number of cards in a deck = 52
Probability of A or 7 = (4 Aces + 4 Sevens) / 52 cards 8 cards / 52 cards
This simplifies to 2/13 or 15.38%
